Sources: Washington State junior Robert Franks declares for NBA draft, intends to sign with agent

Washington State junior Robert Franks has declared for the 2018 NBA draft and intends to sign with an agent, sources told Yahoo Sports.

Franks, the Pac-12 Most Improved Player of the Year, informed the Washington State coaching staff of his decision on Monday, sources said. A strong outside shooter at 6-foot-8, Franks could intrigue NBA executives during the predraft process.

Franks, 21, averaged 17.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 40.5 percent 3-point shooting in 30 games this past season. He scored 34 points on a team-record 10 3-pointers in a conference game against California in January.
